Hello summer – well I guess it’s not technically summer for a few more weeks, but I like to think it starts in June. Especially since we’ve been having amazing warm weather in Mammoth for all of May! June is also Pride Month so I thought I’d share a really fun Rainbow Smoothie Bowl recipe that not only celebrates Pride but also makes for a tasty cold breakfast or snack!
I don’t usually decorate desserts in rainbow colors, so this is a great recipe to celebrate while using natural rainbow foods. You can also use different fruits of the same colors such as raspberries, mangos, or green grapes. I made a very light and delicious smoothie that goes with all the fruit toppings. You can also add granola or cereal for a little more oomph and more protein if you’re having this for breakfast. This recipe makes a large smoothie bowl, so it’s definitely meal worthy. But, you can also split it in two if you just want a light snack. Delaney and I usually share a smoothie bowl for snacks. Get the recipe below for my Rainbow Smoothie Bowl.
Why Organic
Why use organic ingredients in this recipe? You all know I’m a huge organic advocate, and I bet you may be thinking sometimes, Why would I even bother to use organic ingredients in something that is so sweet and indulgent? But, that is the exact reason why you should use organic ingredients! Sweet things need to have flavor in order to be good, otherwise they are just sweet and they don’t taste like much else. Organic ingredients are more pure than conventional ones, therefore they actually have more flavor than the non organic options. Say it with me, organic means more flavor! And not just more flavor but a more true and pure flavor. And organic ingredients are much healthier for you to eat in general as they do not contain GMOs or anything artificial. Plus, you are being environmentally friendly when you choose organic ingredients!
So, I highly recommend that you buy the best organic ingredients for this recipe! You can also shop my Amazon Storefront for all my favorite organic ingredients here. Tip – hover over each ingredient to see the name. And if you want to learn more about organic foods and the difference, read my post here on Food Labels and What They Mean.
